SECTION I: STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW)

POSTAGE MACHINE AND CERTIFIED MAIL SOFTWARE

I.1 BACKGROUND INFORMATION

The Department of the Treasury is the executive agency responsible for promoting economic prosperity and ensuring the financial security of the United States. Our mission is to maintain a strong economy and create economic and job opportunities by promoting the conditions that enable economic growth and stability at home and abroad, and strengthen national security by combating threats, protecting the financial system's integrity, and managing the U.S.

Government’s finances and resources effectively. The mission highlights the Treasury’s role as the steward of U.S. economic and financial systems and an influential participant in the world economy.

Treasury Operations (TOs) uses the MD400 series postage machine with the “Information Based Indicia” (IBI) meter technology. Effective December 31, 2024, the USPS will decertify all IBI meter technology and regard them as non-compliant. To remain compliant and avoid service disruption, mailers and mail centers must switch to the “Intelligent Mail Indicia” (IMI) meter technology solution. USPS is implementing the new IMI mailing technology solution that replaces outdated IBI performance standards with the newer, more sophisticated technology meter mailing solution that provides the USPS with much more detailed real-time transaction data. The move to IMI provides USPS with more data that supports tracking mail with an auditable chain of custody. It reduces lost or misdirected mail and makes delivery dates more predictable. Additionally, the IMI enables the USPS to automate operations that are faster, more accurate, detailed, real-time transaction data for pricing and reporting, employ improved security standards, and ensure correct postage is used. The IMI is effective and beneficial for both the senders and recipients of mail and packages. The IMI requires more powerful processing capabilities and not a simple software update.

39 Code of Federal Regulations authorized the Postal Service to withdraw all authorizations to distribute (decertify) Postage Evidencing System (PES) that are not producing compliant “Intelligent Mail Indicia” (IMI) on December 31, 2024. All “Information Based Indicia” (IBI) will become decertified Postage Evidencing Systems on December 31, 2024
